The pandemic significantly exacerbated the needs of the elderly, leading to, regarding the loss of functional capacity, quality of life, well-being, mental health, and increased loneliness. Social prescription emerges as an innovative and non-clinical strategy, being a personalized approach that focuses on individual needs and objectives (Islam, 2020). By referring primary health care users to resources available in the community, obtaining non-medical support that can be used in conjunction with, or instead of, existing medical treatments (Chng <jats:italic>et\u00a0al.<\/jats:italic>, 2021).<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S1463423624000410_as3\">\n\t    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>A scoping review was conducted based on preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses, extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Searches were performed in electronic databases for potential studies: Scopus, PubMed, Medline, and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection. Studies were included if they: (1) addressed social prescription interventions; (2) were community based; and (3) included elderly participants. Data extraction followed predefined criteria.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S1463423624000410_as4\">\n\t    <jats:title>Findings:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>Of a total of 865 articles identified, nine were selected. The social prescription activities identified fall into eight main domains: arts, personal development, social interaction, physical activity, gardening, cultural activities, religious activities, and technological activities. The interventions resulted in improved well-being, enhanced quality of life, health promotion, and reduced isolation and loneliness. Social prescription, while innovative, is still an evolving intervention, which can respond to the needs of the elderly population, given the range of activities that may exist in the community. Primary care professionals must develop these interventions, establish a link between health and the community, respond to these needs, and promote healthy ageing.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1463423624000410","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]],"date-time":"2024-10-17T12:25:28Z","timestamp":1729167928000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Social prescription for the elderly: a community-based scoping review"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"25","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0978-007X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rute","family":"Sadio","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0288-6653","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adriana","family":"Henriques","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8316-5035","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paulo","family":"Nogueira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2727-4402","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andreia","family":"Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref43","volume-title":"Progress Report on the United Nations Decade of Healthy Ageing, 2021\u20132023","year":"2023"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S1463423619000598"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/bjcn.2020.25.6.294"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref30","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.socscimed.2020.113149"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/hsc.12839"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/hsr2.320"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/bjcn.2021.26.4.204"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/pop.2017.0109"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref3","first-page":"128","volume-title":"Beyond the Psychology Industry","author":"Boydell","year":"2020"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref37","first-page":"4","article-title":"Social prescribing programmes to prevent or delay frailty in community-dwelling older adults","volume":"4","author":"Smith","year":"2019","journal-title":"Geriatrics (Switzerland)"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref40","volume-title":"World Population Ageing 2019","year":"2019"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref41","volume-title":"A Toolkit on How to Implement Social Prescribing","year":"2022"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref35","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4025\/actascihumansoc.v39i2.33089"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref39","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/M18-0850"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjgh-2022-008524"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/17533015.2017.1334002"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref9","volume-title":"The Social and Economic Impact of the Rotherham Social Prescribing Pilot: Main Evaluation Report","author":"Dayson","year":"2014"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref29","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.puhe.2014.12.011"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.puhe.2017.03.010"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref32","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.23937\/2469-5858\/1510111"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2020.515469"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-123-11-199512010-00008"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref7","first-page":"1","article-title":"Music and movement for health: protocol for a pragmatic cluster-randomised feasibility pilot trial of an arts-based programme for the health and wellbeing of older adults","volume":"5","author":"Clifford","year":"2022","journal-title":"Health Research Board Open Research"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/26335565211017781"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref31","volume-title":"Personalised Care Social Prescribing and Community-Based Support Summary Guide","year":"2020"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2023.1252157"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3399\/BJGP.2020.1153"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/1364557032000119616"},{"key":"S1463423624000410_ref15","volume-title":"Proje\u00e7\u00f5es de Popula\u00e7\u00e3o Residente 2080.
